The Falling Of Pride
By VampireGirl
Climbing to get to the top, But only falling. reaching up and trying to touch the sky but only seeing the ground. How is one to see the sky? when her heads held down low? When is the right time to spread my winds, and let the wind flow beneath me. How many excuses may my mind say, before I take this chance. Where am I headed? When my pride leads me the wrong way. I knew I should of followed the ones that had the map, But my pride got in my way I took the dark and gloomy road. The one where trees are black, and the rivers are covered in ice, And dust falls from my feet. So out of breath, and so tired I cannot carry on. I hate my self for my mistake of doing so wrong. All so many things, I have done in my life I have been able to recover from This is something I cannot fight. And still no one comes looking for me, Down this dark route. Oh how I wish I could had let my pride fall. They have the stars, they could reach, They have the tools to climb the highest mountains, They have the faith, And the shoes to step on their pride. What do I have? an empty bottle of water, the wrong path, And out of breath and have nothing Left. Written October 9th, 2001 © on Oct 08 2001 04:18 PM PST, Shelly 0 • 10
